Premises Liability / Slip and Fall

The Fort Lauderdale personal injury attorneys at Lyons, Snyder & Collin handle all types of slip and fall accidents.   Slip and fall accidents (also known as trip and fall accidents) fall under an area of law called premises liability.  

it can happen to anyone

Generally, slip and falls refer to accidents which occur due to the negligent maintenance or unsafe/dangerous condition on property owned by someone other than the accident victim. A slip and fall can result in serious injuries, including sprains, strains, fractured bones and head injuries. Some of these injuries may cause you to miss a few days of work. Others may result in a life-altering disability or death. Fort Lauderdale attorneys Marc P. Lyons and Sean L. Collin assist clients through all aspects of a premises liability / slip and fall claim, including communication with your medical provider, investigating potential insurance coverage, negotiations with the insurance company or responsible party, and filing a lawsuit, if necessary.

accidents occur anywhere and everywhere

A slip and fall accident can happen anywhere: in a retail store; at a friend’s house; department store; in a parking lot; or on a public sidewalk. Owners and operators of public places such as restaurants, supermarkets, showrooms and retail stores have a specific responsibility/duty to maintain a safe place for the public. This is a legal responsibility that serves to your benefit if you slip and fall in their property.
